We fooled around in the shower until the water had pruned our skin and our stomachs growled. We stepped out of the shower.

She pulled on a white tank top that hugged her body and some pajama pants. I wrapped a towel around my waist.

"Hold on a second." She disappeared down the hall. She returned with a pair of baggy basketball shorts and a black t-shirt with the Darielle logo in white embossed on the front. She held the shorts up to my waist. "These will fit."

"These leftovers from the last guy who broke your heart?" I grabbed the shorts out of her hand.

"What makes you think I would let anyone break my heart?" She looked away.

"Some things we can't control," I said.

She ignored me and headed downstairs.

I slipped the shorts on and followed her downstairs. She peered in the refrigerator, and I pulled the shirt on over my head then jumped up on the counter. She shut the refrigerator and picked up her phone instead.

"Pizza?"

"Fine." I nodded.

"What do you want on it?" She stood next to me, her hand resting on my thigh.

"Pepperoni and any vegetables." I leaned in and kissed her neck. She pushed off me and dialed.

I studied her as she ordered the pizza. The guy who answered obviously knew her. She laughed easily. She lived her whole life in this town and knew everyone within a ten-mile radius. Maybe that was what drew her to me. Maybe she was ready to broaden her horizons.

When she hung up, she walked back over and stood between my legs.

"Why does your brother want to sell the place?" I asked.

She ran her hands over my thighs. I stopped their progress and tilted my head.

"I don't know." She frowned. "He doesn't love the business like I do."

"You can't run it by yourself?" I rubbed her cheek, trying to make the frown disappear.

She turned away, but I pulled her back in my arms.

"Doesn't make for much of a family business if I'm the only one still there." She shrugged her shoulders. "Besides, I don't really enjoy the business part of it. You need to be unemotional in business, and I don't have the stomach for it."

I pulled her close. My fingers slid through her hair.

"Do you know why I asked you that question at the conference?" I asked.

She shook her head and leaned back against me.

"Because you had your facts straight, but you needed to show a little bit about why it's important to you. You needed to give the investment a human connection. People are craving that right now. I know I am." I hand traveled down her side, over the curves of her hips. I reached around and squeezed her ass.

She giggled.

"What?" She peered up through her eyelashes. "You mean the famous player, Donovan Bryant, is looking to connect with someone? Where's my phone? I need to notify ESPN."

"Stop making fun of me.” I slapped her on the ass, and she yelped.

"Hey." She pouted but grinned.

"I like you like this." I kissed her neck.
